Police said 23-year-old Derek Eugene Queen had been arrested several times for selling cocaine and marijuana in a Congress Heights neighborhood where he lived. In 2007, D.C. police arrested Queen for possession of cocaine with intent to distribute on the 500 block of Oakwood Street SE, the same area where he had been arrested for drugs in 2005 and 2006.
Queen spent 30 days in the D.C. jail for violating his parole for a 2005 felony narcotics arrest, but he failed to appear in court in October 2008 to face the most recent charges.
Police have not seen him since, and marshals deputies said it's time for Queen to come in and face the charges.
"Queen is one of the many drug dealers that we need to get off our city streets," said Deputy U.S. Marshal Kenyatta Kerr. "We are asking for the community's assistance in locating Derek Queen and are offering a reward for any information directly leading to his capture."
Queen is described as a 23-year-old black male standing 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing approximately 200 pounds. His last known address was on Oakwood Street Southeast.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Queen is urged to call the U.S. Marshals Service at 301-489-1717 or 800-336-0102.
